    US General 56" toolbox weight? - UPDATE - IT'S HOME

    I'm pretty sure HF has the weight ratings on their website, I'll take a look here in a bit. I've always moved my Snap On 54" with the smallest U Haul trailer with a ramp. The ramp is rounded on the edge (probably made for mower tires to drive up, so you'll need a piece of wood or something to...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    I can make some room. I think a dedicated workbench like you say is the best bet. I'm just need to stop being lazy/cheapskate and just need to do it right.

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    I don't have a vice yet, but really need/want one. The issue is where to mount it. I just have tool boxes as my work surface for now. Could you also include alternative mounting places for us without a proper workbench? I know I could "google" it, but I value your opinions/thoughts more.

    Upgrading Old Car Electrical System

    Look up Painless. They'll probably have something you are looking for. I agree, electrical and fuel lines should be not only checked but replaced to reduce headache/heartache later on vehicles a half a century old.

    Icon Impact Socket Coating Coming Off

    I know from the last response I gave on another subject, that someone will chime in and say I've had my impacts sockets for four hundred years and the coating is still perfect! I have Snap On, MAC and Pittsburgh impact sockets and they ALL have the coating coming off/scratches on them from use...

    Looking at subcompact/compact tractors.

    Kubota's are usually a great product. I've work for and worked on Kubota's, as well as other makes customers would bring in. You can find parts, wiring schematics for every Kubota ever made. Even parts discontinued from Kubota can easily be found aftermarket. I have a 2003 Kubota TG1860. It's a...

    HF 3 Ton Daytona Floor Jack

    I believe this one is made at the same factory as the Snappy. Like others have mentioned, you'll see this jack in the bays of many auto shops. I'm going to pick up one these for home use pretty soon.

    U.S.A. made vs German made

    I prefer American made whenever possible. We have a lot of great and innovative tool manufacturers here. Now if I run across a quality tool made in Germany, which I have set of large metric TOP combo wrenches made there I'll get them. Actually I'll buy any quality tool/product from anyone except...

    Cordless mini Chainsaw that does not leak oil?

    Not goofy, some of us have just seen over thirty units. During training we were told some leaking is normal, especially after use due to oil already being on chain & bar. I can't account for the exception for there will always be.

    Cordless mini Chainsaw that does not leak oil?

    When I was at Kubota we had a rental department full of chainsaws. Top brands new and kinda new. When properly lubed with chainsaw oil they all leaked. A little is normal. The chain has been lubed and drips some after use. Just don't put it on cardboard or a towel. That'll help wick oil and make...

    Insurance for your tools and your tools after death……

    Agreed. Most homeowners insurance should cover a lot of it. I'm more worried about my place of employments tool coverage. Some places have you take pictures and have a written inventory. Others just had a dumb look on their face because they don't know what quality tools cost and just shrug...

    Cordless mini Chainsaw that does not leak oil?

    They all leak. The chain oiling system is sealed. I have an Echo electric and just store it on top of a small oil pan.

    Grease Gun Grease - Which One?

    I concur, used this stuff on a lot of AG and construction equipment, but kept a tube of Mobile 1 synthetic grease in it's own gun for my personal stuff.
